No butterfly, Dotty...just a ladybug on the sunflower to the right of the rooster's beak.

MargeD, check out these videos on youtube for thread painting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYIDr6PuzPI
I watched several before beginning my tests on separate fabrics before applying it to the real quilt, but it wasn't difficult to do once I'd figured it out.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments everyone! I'm so excited by this rooster that I think I want to design something I can do in a series. Now if time will just cooperate! lol
